The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF) signed a Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) with the Bibliotheca Alexandrina (BA) in the Arab Republic of Egypt to create joint
knowledge projects that facilitate seamless access to educational and knowledge content, especially for
people of determination. This move is a testament to MBRF’s commitment to promoting and empowering
knowledge-based communities both regionally and globally.
The MoU was signed by His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, and Dr. Ahmed Zayed,
Director of BA. During the signing ceremony, both parties expressed their interest in this institutional
collaboration, which signifies a pivotal step in the efforts to enhance Arab knowledge and intellectual
development.
The agreement covers various areas of collaboration, with a key focus on producing DAISY-format digital
talking books to enhance knowledge accessibility for individuals with visual impairments. Additionally, the
MoU outlines plans for joint training programs, exchange of expertise in library science, and the
organization of engaging and innovative cultural and knowledge-based events.
